A friend of mine has really thick frizzy hair. She keeps it cut right above her shoulders but it is still wild. Her Dad and Mom both have thick hair so hers is twice as thick. Do y'all have any tips on how she can tame her hair so it isn't so frizzy and wild?

She shouldn't use a blow dryer without a diffuser and not to manipulate her hair while drying. Also she can opt for a precision cut to reduce the bulk of her hair.

She should put coconut oil. That would help reduce the frizzies and make hair really shiny. It would be better if she applies in at night before she sleep and take a shower in the morning. That would help penetrate the oil into the scalp and work its magic. Also, it would reduce stress so she would have a good night sleep. She could take a shower in the morning by using a shampoo that would help reduce the frizz. I reccomend John Frieda new line of shampoos n conditioners. Afterwards, just apply Frizz Ease by the same company. John Frieda is the best!
Hope that helps!

I too have thick frizzy hair - I've tried EVERY product out there - the best I've found is "Redken Glass". Apply a little bit after towel drying and then blow dry hair using a natural bristle brush. (stay away from the popular plastic vent brushes - they'll just make more frizz), then to smooth out the frizziness, use a really big curling iron to get control of those curls! It took me 20+ years to figure this out...... but it works!

She should try to get bangs to just get rid of some hair(if she doesn't have already)!!
She should also use a shampoo that is supposed to tame frizzy hair.. good brands are Got2be and Sun Silk.. my hair is super frizzy and i use the Sun Silk anti-poof!!
Also she should try using a nice light hairspray or gel! She should also try the Garnier Fructis Milk. It instantly smooths you hair, De-frizzes and makes it soo soft and touchable!
Another idea is to try a thining shampoo that will make her hair more fine and less thick!!

After she gets out of the shower, before towel drying her hair, she should put in John Freida Frizz-Ease (about 5 pumps worth). After towel drying her hair, she should use Sun Silk (anti-poof or de-frizz). I've never tried their shampoo or conditioner, so I don't know if they work, but the styling lotion stuff works REALLY well!
This is the website for Sun Silk: http://www.gethairapy.com/
She can go there and request a free sample.

The only perfect solution is Garnier Fructis Sleek and Shine System.You can buy the shampoo,conditioner,oil,or leave on conditioner.They all work.You could just buy one of them and say good bye to frizzy hair!! I recommend the oil.It works best if you use it when your hair is towel dried

You're going to freak out at first when I tell you this, but trust me, she'll thank you for it. Stop shampooing!
No, that doesn't mean don't wash your hair- it means she needs to change up her routine a little.
Have her check out "Curly Girl" by Lorraine Massey. If she's not into buying the book, she can point her web browser to: http://motowngirl.com/no_shampoo.php which gives Lorraine Massey's technique from the book in a nutshell.
I started this routine a few weeks ago on my ridiculous hair and let me tell you, my scalp is SQUEAKY clean, literally, my hair smells great, and it looks 100% better!
Good luck!

John Freda has a great line for frizzy hair. Its called Frizz-ease. Its a really good line and it works. Just apply to hair while wet.

get a really good flat iron. at a professional beauty supply store. theyre pretty pricy, but they take care of all the frizz, and moderate the thickness. if its too much money-wise, try an anti-frizz serum, blowdry with low heat or cooling option. then for the thickness, have her go to a salon and they can thin her hair w/ thinning shears.

NEVER BLOW DRY!!!!
I have the exact same hair...drives me NUTS!!! Tell her to GROW IT OUT!! The shorter it is the worse it will look...the length will weigh it down and tell her to use TextureLine hair gel by Loreal (sold at professional salons)..she needs a heavy shampoo and cond and heavy products! Pantene is good and also Keratese (kinda pricey)
When she gets a cut tell them to THIN it out as much as possible..I do all this and bought a CHI to straighten it...no one is the wiser... :)
